Problem with the Washington Post "The Seven" newsletter

In the last few weeks when i look at the Washington Post "The Seven" newsletter e-mail there are words missing from the description of each item. Only the words that are underlined are shown. I have found that if I mouse select the text the missing words show up as white text on a blue background. But if I look at the same e-mail directly on AOL (my mail server) there is no problem. The picture shows what it looks like after I do the mouse select. I don't know how to fix this. Please help. George Mells

I also read that newsletter with no problems. I used the default light theme and the dark theme and both worked fine. I use windows 11, so the OS and/or display monitor may be part of the issue.

I have Win 11 23H2 and a Lenovo laptop. The problem only started a few weeks ago and I don't remember making any system changes. I think it has something to do with the underlining the posts use but I can't figure out how to get Thunderbird to ignore that. The Washington Post e-mails are the only ones that have this problem.
